5. Computer Games Research Group

   The Computer Games Research Group conducts research into realistic, intelligent and intuitive interactions between humans and computers. You can find out more about the work the Computer Games Research Group conduct, the researchers and the contact details for this group here.

6. Contemporary Art Lab

   The Contemporary Art Lab's digital creative research relates to the relationship between technology and culture, as well as the way meaning unfolds through new computational forms.

7. City Lab

   The Uses of Art Lab, based within ART LABS, asks how we can use art more effectively in society. Discover the themes and projects based within the Lab.

8. Libraries in a Digital World

   The Libraries in a Digital World project explores how and in what ways digitisation is changing the role of libraries and how their design might evolve in the future in response.

9. The Multisensory Mouth: An investigation into the Motivational, Cognitive and Emotional mechanisms, driving Oral behaviours

   This project focuses on the role olfactory and oral perception plays in shaping our consummatory experiences, preferences, and food seeking behaviours. Research into this area is important to health research, shaping understanding of individual differences in food selection, consumption, and other dietary behaviours.

10. Communication and blended-learning: Language and social cues in different learning contexts across educational stages

    The COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated the pace at which educational institutions moved towards a blended approach of online and in-person learning (Jisc, 2020). While embracing this change, the challenges it brings for learner experience, engagement and learning must be carefully considered.
